I've been obsessively looking around the city looking for a letterman jacket. I've searched vintage stores and the obvious local shops ( livestock, goodfoot and el kartel ) but alas my attempts have all come up fruitless.

If you don't know where I could locate one, could you atleast point me towards companys who make decent ones? ( i'd rather not pay 800$ like the ones picture above )

Thank you, ALOT!

LRD, Roots, Jordan, Supreme and other brands make them. If you hit up the mall... I'm sure you'll find some.

Real talk Roots letterman/varsity jackets were the shit. I haven't been to a roots store in a long ass time but they still make em they'll rpobably be a definite cop. This old japanese guy in my neighborhood has one from like a long ass time ago and it's so dope. I think the guy who designs for TBG used to design for Roots.

EDIT: Check it out, they still make varsity's. The older ones had sleeve patches and shit like old polo joints but this is more simple. I like it but I wanna find a pair of vintage roots shit haha.

350 seems normal for a varsity jacket. especially when they use real leather. the cheapest ones are still 100+ and they come with non leather sleeves. i would say try online but buying anything online now is almost the same as buying retail instore with tax.
